Structure of norbornene-fused 3,1-oxazine double cycloadducts

Pentacyclic isoxazolines were obtained by the cycloaddition of benzonitrile oxide to norbornene-azetidinone-fused 3,1-oxazines. The constitutions of two of the isomers obtained, and the configurations and conformations of all products, were determined by means of ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and DNOE experiments.     

An Inventory Model for Deteriorating Items and Stock-dependent Consumption Rate

An order-level inventory model is developed for deteriorating items with uniform rate of production and stock-dependent demand. Shortages are allowed, and excess demand is backlogged. Results are illustrated with numerical examples.

     

The Gaussian cotype of operators fromC(K)

We show that the canonical embeddingC(K) →L _Φ(μ) has Gaussian cotypep, where μ is a Radon probability measure onK, and Φ is an Orlicz function equivalent tot ^p(logt) ^p/2 for larget.     

Simultaneous best approximation by three polynomials

Let [a, b] be any interval and let p₀, p₁, p_k be any three polynomials of degrees 0, 1, k, respectively, where k 2. A set of necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an f in C[a, b] such that p_i is the best approximation to f from the space of all polynomials of degree less than or equal to i, for all i = 0, 1, k, is given.     

Ag-induced atomic structures on the Si(110) surface

We report the results of STM investigation of the initial stage of Ag adsorption on an Si(110) surface. At 0.21 ML Ag coverage, the size and orientation of the unit cell correspond to the parameters of a 16 × 2 unit cell of clean Si(110) surface. With increasing of the Ag coverage up to 0.42 ML, the type of surface reconstruction changes to a 4 × 1-Si(110)-Ag structure. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Synthesis and fungicidal activity of S-amino derivatives of O-alkyldithiocarbonic acids

S-Amino derivatives of O-alkyldithiocarbonic acid were prepared by oxidative condensation of certain alkaloids with sodium xanthates. Some of the compounds synthesized exhibit fungicidal activity.
